Join a daily celebration of poetry and the arts. This blog gives voice to the academics, the arts, creativity, expression and the pursuit of TRUTH. All art forms, all academic interests are timeless reflections and revelations of the human condition. Passion, poetry and the arts fuel the creative fires that move me to expression and deep gratitude. My published book of poems, THE WIND AND THE WILLOW is available at Barnes and Noble and online booksellers nationally and internationally.

Changing firmament to beholdHues and tones by the light enfoldBeauty be this Winter sky aboveEver the strokes of the Creator's loveLight within shadow there to castVista of splendor ever vast.Rose Marie Raccioppi
